My family LOVES these almonds!

By Pioneerwoman from Wichita ks on February 4, 2015

After our local candy store had been out of these lemon creme almonds for several weeks, and we had all made several phone calls and in-person visits to get more, I decided to research online to track them down! I was impressed with the results! The product arrived in perfect condition and even with expedited shipping, the cost was not unreasonable. THANK YOU!

Pros:

Flavor, texture, freshness, overall quality

Cons:

Can't think of anything!

AWESOME Almonds

By Pamela from Chicago, IL on January 27, 2015

I was so pleased when our shipment of lemoncello almonds arrived. Friends originally brought the little treats to a holiday party and they disappeared very quickly - everyone was hooked. I purchased the 10# size and have been sharing them with family and friends. Superior had the best price, quick delivery, and the almonds taste great.

Pros:

Taste
Delivered as promised

Italian almond lover

By Italian Almond Lover from Texas on December 2, 2014

I had purchased some of these almonds when in Italy last spring. Loved them, as did everyone who received them as gifts.

My sister-in-law liked them so well, she ordered some to take back to the Philippines with her. Very Good!

Lemoncello Almonds 5 lb bag

By Kimberly Campbell from San Jose, Ca on November 4, 2014

We bought them for our wedding and everyone wanted to know where we got them. I hadn't ordered enough initially so I had to place a second order which was back ordered. I had to cancel the 2nd order because it wouldn't arrive in time. I placed the reorder through Nuts for Nuts for a 25 lb box and when it arrived the label said it was from Superior nut company. That surprised me since Superior was out of stock.

Pros:

Very tasty, reminded us of Italy

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Absolutely To DIE For!!!

By Brenda K. McQueen from Eaton, Ohio on October 13, 2014

These are absolutely wonderful! The almond is so fresh they shock you with how a really good, fresh almond should taste and then it's covered in silky, smooth white chocolate that melts in your mouth and is covered with a lemon topping that is perfectly balances to the other ingredients. The lemon taste is divine!!! Ordered 20 # and plan on coming back for more. Make a great trail mix with these and took to a party over the weekend. Had tons of people ask me what these were and how can they get their hands on some!!! TASTY! And almonds are good for you too!!!

Delivery Issues

By Laura from Spokane WA on May 21, 2014

The nuts themselves rate a 5 for flavor and texture, but I bought them to serve at a party and they arrived with over half of the nuts melted together and unusable. It must have been hot in the USPS truck, but it spoiled the purchase for me.

Healthy & Sweet

By Jacqueline from Chatham, IL. on March 2, 2014

Recently purchased a small bag of these at a retail store and sampled them before leaving the store.

After the holidays I could not find them in the store so I ordered directly from your site.

Lemoncello Almonds

By Carole Dick from Glendive MT on February 26, 2014

Me, myself and I give these almonds a gold medal. Some of my friends were fortunate to get these for a Valentines treat...they really like me now! I gave them superior nut email address and said order your own and return some to the person who introduced you to these lemon delights. Marti Peterson is the one who introduced them to me..she's now my new best friend!

Pros:

They are delicious. I like the fact that they're covered with white chocolate and lemon coating YUM!

Cons:

I feel compelled to eat 26 of them at snack time and do need at least 5# on hand

Lemoncello Almonds

By MJ from York, PA on December 31, 2013

Tasted these delicious little goodies at an Italian "farm to table" dining experience and all my italian classmates couldn't get enough of them at the dessert table. I inquired where they were purchased and followed up on it.
I have since ordered a 10 lbs box and distributed to friends and family for the tasteful experience and then ordered 10- 1 lb bags for Christmas giving. I will warn you that they are addictive and you can't get enough of them!! A great treat for the taste buds.

Pros:

Everything!!

Cons:

Nothing to dislike.

Lemoncello almonds ae delicious!

By Peggy from Palm Springs CA on December 17, 2013

I included these almonds in lemon themed gifts to accompany Meyer lemons from our tree, lemon scented tea and tea towels with lemons on them. Recipients all wanted more lemoncello almonds. I may have to buy the 5 pound bag next time. Let me know if they are ever on sale!

I would recommend this item to a friend.

tasty but not like the ones from italy...

By Bee from NY on December 15, 2013

the details say the recipe is from sconza, so i imagine the sconza version is similar to this. either way, i was hoping to continue enjoying my lemoncello almonds when im not in italy...but these are just not the same. they have a softer and more chocolatey outside, as opposed to a light crisp shell that ive had all around sorrento/amalfi. if you didnt have the italian ones to compare to, then these are probably great. they are very tasty...but disappointed for me personally.

Pros:

taste

Cons:

texture

Thank you!

awesome in taste

By MJ from York, PA on September 25, 2013

I have no idea why I bought 10 lbs of lemoncello almonds!! I tasted them at an italian dinner in a farm house in Spring Grove, PA...called the Caputo Brothers. They were on the table during our meal and dessert. I had only tasted one because all my friends ate the rest because they couldn't stop! I suppose I had bought so many because I wanted to serve them to guests at my house when I had dinner and wanted all my friends to try them. Well, little did I know that within one week they were gone!!! 1/4 of them were probably eaten by me!!

My friend, who also loved them at the dinner, asked if I wanted to split a ten pound order with her and I said, no, but when I had none left within a weeks time, i decided to team up with her and order another batch! This time I will have to practice self control so they last a little longer...

Cons:

We love Lemoncello almonds

By Brenda from Charlotte on May 22, 2013

I ordered the almonds for sister's birthday. The package arrived on time and were delivered to my front door.

Pros:

It's really yummy.

Cons:

Shipping cost.

Merchant Response:

Due to the hot weather these were shipped 2 Day Air from Boston, MA to San Francisco, CA w/ Ice Gels and in an insulated box. The shipping cost was clearly stated during the checkout.

The Best Candy You'll Ever Eat

By Francine from Austin, Texas on May 17, 2013

We just returned from a trip to the Italian riviera and we had some of their limoncello covered almonds. They we're delicious and I was afraid I'd have to return to Italy to enjoy them again. To my pleasure, superior nut company's tasted exactly the same!!! I'll be ordering more very soon. They pack them on ice so no worries if you live in hot areas of the country.

Pros:

Delicious

Cons:

Disappear too quickly.

These delicious lemon covered almonds are so delicious! The lemon flavor is perfect! If you love lemon like I do, you will not be disappointed!

After 80 years in business, we know a good thing when we see it. These Lemoncello Almonds, made by the Sconza family confectionary of Oakdale, California, are the bomb! It’s nearly impossible to describe the wave of pleasure that washes over you when you bite into one of these remarkable nut candies, but at least we know what causes it. At its heart is a fresh, lightly roasted California almond of superior quality. Crunchy and savory, the almond is then coated in rich, decadent white chocolate and drenched in an unbelievably delicious lemon cream. The mingled flavors simply explode in your mouth and radiate outward—sensational! Net wt. 1 lb.

The candies were inspired by the family’s wistful memories of the scent of lemon blossoms in the groves of Sorrento; even today, one sweet bite is all that’s needed to transport a dreamer! We invite you to experience the unique pleasure of these one-of-a-kind treats. Whether it’s a quick pick-me-up in the midst of a trying time, or a well-earned reward for some small accomplishment, you’ll never lack for reasons to reach for our delicious Lemoncello Almonds. They’re the perfect indulgence, a sure-fire way to brighten virtually any day, and just a quick call or click away.
